Module 3 Water Quality Index

Stream Name: CHILLIWACK CREEK | Survey Date: February 27th, 2020
Chemical Test Result Q-value Weighting Index Value
Temperature Change: Temperature Not enough data 91.00 X 0.10 = 9.1
Oxygen Saturation: 61.40 61.00 x 0.17 = 10.37
pH (units): 7.90 87.00 x 0.11 = 9.57
Turbidity (cm): 0.00 70.00 x 0.08 = 5.6
Total = Water Quality Index (Compare this value to the Water Quality Chart below)
